Daniel grabbed his phone, ignoring his friends' protests. They felt choosing Kendall Hamilton was a bad idea that would only add to the drama of the project and might backfire on the group.Craig locked his gaze on his friend, who was yet again making another uncharacteristic decision. Daniel was not the type to surround himself with drama or attention, but it appeared he was attracting all the attention he had tried to avoid his entire life."Daniel, are you sure?" Craig asked for the third time, knowing full well that there were other students who were far more qualified than Kendal for the position."Trust me, guys," Daniel said, his attention drawn to his phone.Zain, who was on campus, had just texted him. He summoned Daniel outside. It was crucial. Daniel abruptly excused himself and exited the room.Zain's request for a meet-up outside the room meant that whatever he had to say was only meant for the two of them and not to be heard by the other two friends.He crossed the camp

Kendall turned to face Shelly, then Daniel. The tense air between them piqued her interest but she had no time playing Shelly's games, she was more interested in finding out where Daniel stood."Let's talk over ice cream. It's far too hot in here," she laughed as she walked back into the room to put on makeup and grab her purse.Shelly approached the door. "What do you think you're doing?" She yelled at Daniel.Daniel looked behind him to see if the woman was talking to him or someone else."I'm talking to you, fool! Who do you think you are?"Kendall raised an eyebrow for a split second. Shelly was taking the entire issue too personally.Daniel cleared his throat as he moved closer to Shelly."What exactly do you think I'm doing?" he asked, a sleek smile on his face."Using Kendall to retaliate against me and Michael isn't going to work," she stated flatly.Daniel laughed."Not everything revolves around you, Princess," he replied coldly, before asking Kendall if she was finished."A

Daniel arrived at his apartment satisfied with the events of the day. He smiled as he walked to his room. He was certain George Meyers was already receiving phone calls from his friend's parents and biting his tongue while explaining his threats.He was no longer going to have any problems with the fool if everything went as planned. As he sat down, he relievedly signed. He held the relic in his hands, remembering the old fool holding it without realizing it.The adage "hide something in plain sight for the enemy" worked in his favor. He chuckled as he remembered the old man's expression.Perhaps one day, after making him pay for everything he'd done to his family, he'd reveal how he'd hidden the relic in plain sight.He stood up with a smile, clutching his insulin infuser. With the project's funding and the Relic's power, he was going to bring the device to life in his aunt's honor, and, more importantly, it was going to make the nurses' job of managing her diabetes in her coma state

"See you around," Shelly mocked as the couple walked away. Daniel's stunned expression was priceless and beautiful to watch. She wished she had taken a picture of it, but she didn't want to appear too petty.They had no idea how Micheal's father did it, but Daniel was off the list and Micheal was on it in less than 24 hours.As they walked away, Shelly inquired about Kendall's position on the team."I'm sure no one wants her on the team," Michael replied confidently, knowing exactly how to get rid of her.Soon, the announcement was made in the class group, shocking everyone. The Melvin project's drama was getting juicier by the day.Within minutes, the entire group was flooded with hundreds of messages. Some mocked and laughed at Daniel, while others felt it was unjust for Micheal to get the spot after his device failed during the presentation.His father had clearly purchased the spot, as some of the students had seen him on compass the day before.Craig and Max were taken aback as t

Kendall quickly offered Daniel a seat next to her and reprimanded him for not returning her calls.However, Daniel's attention was drawn to the CEO of Biopharm. He greeted him, but Josh Hamilton only glanced at him and continued sipping his coffee."You knew I was related to the CEO of Biopharm, didn't you?" Kendal enquired.Daniel cleared his throat and looked at her. "No, I did not," he replied.Josh chuckled and turned away."I knew your parents were wealthy and in real estate, but not that you two were related," Daniel responded."Do you have no shame?" Finally, Josh spoke up. "Do we appear to be fools to whom you can simply lie?""No, sir, I am telling the truth," Daniel protested but was cut off."Let's just wait for the other person in silence," Josh said.Kendal grinned. Even though Josh appeared to be cold and mean to the outside world, she knew he had a soft spot inside him.Daniel looked at Kendall, perplexed as to who they were waiting for, but lacked the courage to inquir

On the verge of bursting and ready to deal with all of the board members of the society. George Meyers stood up and was about to walk out of the empty venue when the door opened and Josh Hamilton casually strolled in.George stared at him, perplexed, not realizing he was the one who cleared Daniel's name. He was certain the man was not on the board of directors."Are you lost?" George inquired."No, I just came to check on the man who was having a meeting with himself," Josh joked.George looked at him, enraged. He had no time for nonsense. He decided to exit the room, but Josh blocked him."Is Lidigo that petty to go after a defenseless boy?" Josh asked. As he raised his eyes to meet his, George finally connected the dots."So you cleared that boy's name?""Yes, the next time you want to play your stupid games with people's lives, don't involve me, or it will backfire," Josh warned."Are you sure you can keep cleaning after that little sewer rat?" George chuckled and issued a warnin

Kendall could no longer bear the pain as Michael continued to pull on her tightly. The boy was a monster in human form and she could not believe he had made such a disgusting video of them."Fine, fine, stop," she pleaded."Are you going to fulfill my request?" He ensured."Please give me some time," Kendall l begged.Micheal finally let go of her hair with a push. She was finally communicating in his language. "There is no time limit; that device must be destroyed immediately," he said. He handed her a small black round object that resembled a magnate.Kendall tucked her hair behind her ears as she stared at him, terrified at the small object."What... is... that?" she inquired."That project means nothing to you; you have a secure future at your uncle's company," he said as if trying to lift the weight off of what he was asking of her."All you have to do is position this little magnate beneath the device and leave the rest to me," he explained.Kendall continued to stare at him. Th

Daniel froze in place as he heard the relic speak to him. He looked down at his chest, stunned. He was supposed to activate it first, but it somehow activated itself and began reading data from the machine."You need to feed me so I can fix the machine," said the voice in his head. He looked around, checking if anyone was able to hear the Relic.The entire hall fell silent as they waited for him to begin the presentation, but his attention was drawn to the machine. Craig noticed and approached Daniel, whispering in his ear."Dude, everyone is waiting for you,"Daniel took a look behind him. All eyes were on him, waiting for him. The theory had piqued their interest, and they were eager to see the first insulin infuser capable of producing its own artificial insulin.George sat watching, signaling to his son and asking, "Are you sure you put the magnate on the machine?""Yes, Kendal sent me a message assuring me that she had done the job," Michael replied.Shelly sneered angrily, her g
